5 credits

Nurses are expected to engage in evidence-based practice. As scholar-practitioners, students in this course learn to use evidence in clinical decision making to promote a safe healthcare environment. Students apply course concepts as they identify a current problem in nursing practice and synthesize and evaluate literature, as well as identify changes in practice. Students analyze clinical guidelines and nurse-sensitive indicators in establishing quality and safety initiatives. Students utilize quality improvement models in promoting changes in practice.
